Abstract: In this paper, we generalize the Kirchhoff-Sobolev parametrix of Klainerman and Rodnianski to systems of tensor wave equations with additional first-order terms. We also present a different derivation, which better highlights that such representation formulas are supported entirely on past null cones. This generalization is a key component for extending Klainerman and Rodnianski's breakdown criterion result for Einstein-vacuum spacetimes to Einstein-Maxwell and Einstein-Yang-Mills spacetimes.

Review text

The author generalizes the Kirchhoff-Sobolev parametrix of \textit{S. Klainerman} and \textit{I. Rodnianski} [``A Kirchoff-Sobolev parametrix for the wave equation and applications, J. Hyperbolic Differ. Equ. 4, No. 3, 401--433 (2007; Zbl 1148.35042)] to the systems of tensor wave equations with additional first-order terms. This generalization of [loc. cit.] is a key component for extending Klainerman and Rodnianski's breakdown criterion result for Einstein-vacuum space-times in [\textit{S. Klainerman} and \textit{I. Rodnianski}, ``On the breakdown criterion in general relativity, J. Am. Math. Soc. 23, No.~2, 345--382 (2010; Zbl 1203.35084)] to Einstein-Maxwell and Einstein-Yang-Mills space-times. Furthermore, the author in his article presents a different derivation, which better highlights that such representation formulas are entirely supported on past null cones.
